They ain't beating UGA 
They shouldn't lie to themselves like that.

Normally I’d roll my eyes and laugh at this. But, I think it’s a compliment to Georgia, and I wouldn’t sleep on this Michigan team. On paper, it’s the best roster Ann Arbor has had in a looonnggg time.

Styles make fights. Ohio State had the right mix of talent to give Georgia problems, and they played an incredible game in the Peach Bowl while Georgia didn't. For whatever reason, Georgia still hasn't figured out how to slow down big time passing games.
Michigan, on the other hand, tried to line up and out-manball Georgia and Georgia kicked the absolute shite out of them. Trying to line up and beat Kirby at his own game is a very bad idea.

Michigan and OSU are overrated programs who coast in due to weak schedules. Suck it Jim.
OSU was literally a missed field goal from beating a team who went perfect in the SEC in Atlanta.
Every team outside of UGA is overrated if that is overrated

The refs called it equal both ways.
But the amount of holding that was permitted in the Peach Bowl definitely gave an advantage to the better receiving Corp.

Also, in this era of increase offensive production, unique schemes and concepts take advantage of those mismatches, especially when they're not practiced against regularly. In other words, coaching has gotten more advanced and extremely efficient at identifying and exploiting weakness.
This is what the vast amount of football fans cannot grasp. And very few on this board understand. Transitive property has absolutely nothing to do with it. Matchups, schemes, exploiting weaknesses is where it lies.
It’s unreal how many grown men on here say, “well Team A beat Team B so Team A will beat Team C”
It really doesn’t work that way. Very good post on your part.

UGA outscored them 18-3 in the 4th quarter and even one of their assistant coaches said UGA 'out-conditioned' them in the second half. That's what championship teams do. I won't go so far as to say they are both overrated, but they are certainly overmatched when they have faced SEC teams. We trashed Michigan. Then mopped the floor with TCU who hung 50+ on the same Michigan team that prison-raped Ohio St...2 years straight.
This is pretty laughable overall. The second half score was 18-13 UGA and OSU drove late. That isn't some dominating scoreline and it was after the best player on the field Marvin Harrison Jr was sidelined that all of UGAs points came. One Harrison Jr went out OSU's offense had problems, just like any teams would without their top 2 WRs, top 2 RBs and top TE. It's just simple math.

Agree with this. The holding was insane in the Peach Bowl. If you watch in slow mo, Georgia’s rushers are being held a ridiculous amount in the second half. On Stroud’s big run on the final drive there is literally an offensive linemen tackling one of y’all’s rushers.
That being said, elite pass games have easily been UGA’s biggest weakness under Kirby. It still seems as if that’s one major thing Kirby hasn’t been able to stop as a head coach.

Ohio State should’ve won the game regardless. Y’all had Georgia on the ropes and blew it. 40% of the injuries you just listed were out before the game started and were game planned and accounted for. Injuries is a lame excuse.

Stroud showed stuff that wasn’t on tape and Georgia had to adjust on the fly. Kirby had them in the right place most of the time. He just made plays. Plus, tOSU receiver room is one unit that could match up talent wise.

Is that it felt like to be a Bama fan back in the pre Covid days?

But no team is going to have 4-5 first round wide receivers or 4-5 top RBs who are capable of beating a team as good as UGA.
I'm more just saying it's not a huge blowout in the 2nd half. The 4th quarter was because OSU didn't have many viable offensive weapons left

The thing about Michigan doing this is they did it last year. Go back and watch the selection show. Their players spent the whole time talking about Georgia and how it would be different this time vs te Orange Bowl.

I don't really agree with this, it sounds like we're doing something wrong or can't solve the puzzle. In reality sometimes you're going to face really really fricking good offenses and they're going to score on you, regardless of your defense. The only 2 games anyoen would possibly reference on this topic, both times there was a heisman contender at QB and multiple All Americans at WR, along with probably a decent amount of uncalled holding sprinkled in in one of the games. It's not very realistic to expect to completely and totally shut somethign liek that down.
And to go a step further, why isn't the Tenn game included in that same conversation? They had a heisman caliber QB (at the time), multiple all star WRs, and the most lethal offense in America that had already beaten the shite out of LSU and beaten alabama. We held them to zero touchdowns until a few minutes left in the game. so clearly we can figure it out occasionally.

A little practice session isn't going to magically increase their team speed or toughness.
Nakobe Dean made their little orbit screen BS look like Michigan was running in mud while Georgia had the Sonic super boost.

OSU fans dont' ever want to recognize that MH's last catch of the game came wiht 11 minutes left in the second quarter. He basically started out on absolute fire the first 20 minutes of the game then did nothing. We completely stoned him up until he left the game with injury, but people will only pretend that his injury is single handedly what caused them to sputter.

You are about as...uh, mentally challenged as that other fella 'Bucki O' that gets on here if you believe any of that.
UGA had lots of injuries too, not to mention a ton of holding calls on our OLine that was overlooked. I even had some Buckeye fan friends of mine that admitted that to me after re-watching the game. You're lucky the score wasn't worse than that in the second half.
And the Buckeyes were also lucky Darnell Washington got hurt or our running game would have put up a couple of more scores.
